Presented in collaboration with The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts

Lincoln Center’s free Storytime programming returns at Summer for the City—and, due to continued popular demand, we have scheduled two readings every Wednesday! Curated by The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts—which is celebrating its 60th anniversary this year—Storytime events feature a children's book reading accompanied by live music, dance, or theater, engaging kids of all ages. Award-winning singer-songwriter Suzi Shelton and accomplished musician Christopher Johnson lead this exciting and interactive Storytime. Shelton, celebrated for her joyful music that connects with young children, teams up with Johnson, a versatile touring musician who has performed with prestigious ensembles like the Sphinx Virtuosi, New York City Ballet, and the New York Philharmonic. Together, they create a magical, fun-filled experience for kids and families, performing songs from Shelton’s beloved Cinnamon Bear coloring book.
